Conan continues his campaigns as a soldier of Turan. On the losing end of yet another battle, Conan stumbles away from the field, trying to avoid the enemy soldiers and their helmed leader. He defeats a robber who is raiding the bodies, manages to pull an arrow out of his leg, and makes his way across a river. He manages to find the leader alone, and kills him, stealing his great helm, cape and horse. The soldiers salute the disguised Conan and he leaves the field, stopping briefly to honor his deceased comrades before making his escape.
